Quota

If your administrator has enabled Quotas, you will have limited storage you can use on the server (e.g. 2GBs of data only). This amount includes all active files, previous revisions of files, and deleted files that have not yet been purged. You can see how much space you have used and how much you have remaining, by placing your cursor on the bar under the Sync&Share tab or clicking on your user icon and selecting Manage Quotas.

Managing your quota

You can configure your quota's notifications and purging options to suit your needs.

To do this, log in to the Acronis Access web interface and click on the user icon and click on Manage Quotas.

Quota notifications

You can configure an email notification that will notify you when you reach a certain percentage of your quota.

  1. Select the Send an email notification checkbox.
  2. Enter a number of days. This is the frequency at which you will be emailed about your quota's status.
  3. Enter a percentage for your remaining quota. This sets a personal limit, so you will only be notified when you reach the selected percentage of free space remaining.
  4. Press Save.

Proactive purging

You can set a minimum amount of space that must remain free and if you add more files, the deleted files and old revisions of files will be automatically purged to maintain the set amount of free space.

Note: Purging will never remove the latest active revision of a file or folder.

  1. Click on Purge Proactively and select the checkbox.
  2. Enter a value (in MBs). This is the amount of space that must remain free.
  3. Press Save.

Manual purging

If you're nearing your quota but do not wish to enable proactive purging, you can purge unneeded files manually.

Simply open the Purge Now tab and select the scope of the purge. You can choose between a set amount of MBs, all deleted files and all old revisions of active AND deleted files.

Once you've selected the desired purging options, press Purge Now.
